Cannery Women, Cannery Lives
Vicki L. Ruiz
Women have been the mainstay of the gruelling, seasonal canning industry for over a century. This book is a collective biography. Thousands of Mexicana and Mexican American women working in canneries in southern California established effective, democratic trade union locals run by local members. The dramatic and turbulent history of their union is a major contribution to the new labour history.
